> React will return a pure browser link that behaves exactly as a browser link

No it doesn't (in practice). React is typically used with something like React Router that takes over the whole sub-tree of paths. So links are handled by the single-page app itself, and this can lead to the state leaking through.

Yes, you don't _have_ to do it this way.

"Taken over by Router", "handled by SPA itself" .... "React is to blame"

Yes, you don't have to it this way, and this isn't React-specific. See Google's web.dev site built with web components
